Can I get guaranteed car finance in Sheffield?

No, unfortunately guaranteed car finance is a myth even if you have bad credit. Think about it this way – everyone is different. We all have different circumstances, that’s why no responsible dealer or lender in Sheffield can guarantee you any type of finance.

Only once they have done the appropriate affordability and credit checks will they be able to tell you whether or not they could offer you finance. That’s why you should be wary of anyone claiming to offer guaranteed car finance in Sheffield.

If you have poor credit, there are specialist lenders such as Moneybarn who could help.

What to know about driving in Sheffield

Sheffield is built upon many hills, being located right next to the peak district, so get used to doing hill starts if you going to be driving around Sheffield frequently.

Within the city centre there are lots of one-way roads, pedestrian areas, bus lanes and cyclists so do watch out for those and follow your maps if you are new to the area. There are also lots of trams running from the suburbs to the centre, so don’t be concerned if you end up driving on a tram track, as this is normal for Sheffield.

If you’re looking to park in Sheffield city centre, thankfully they ranked in the top 20 across the UK for the most available and affordable parking spaces.

With an inner city ring road, traffic flows quite well on and off this major road and therefore congestion, like most cities is only really seen around rush hour.
